My Classroom: Slovenia

Damir Soldat teaches English in Slovenia, not far from the borders with Croatia and Hungary, and he takes advantage of his region’s multilingualism in his teaching. Author Edwin Harris describes Damir’s approach to teaching in this unique environment and shows how Damir incorporates creativity, resourcefulness, and music—other singers’ and his own—to foster “culture exchange in his small town to help kids achieve their dreams in whatever language they need.”
